A man was arrested Tuesday after attempting to kidnap a 12-year-old girl who was walking to school, according to Salt Lake City Police.
Around 9:30 a.m., the girl was walking to Liberty Elementary School, located just west of Liberty Park, when the man pulled up in a dark GMC pickup truck. He offered her money and asked if she needed a ride. When she said no and walked away, police say the man drove"in the direction of the girl – to prevent the girl from leaving the area."
The girl then ran away, and the driver took off. She told a trusted adult what happened once she got to school, and school officials contacted police. SLCPD sent out a description of the truck and the suspect, and officers located him in his truck near 550 West and 200 South. The suspect, who police said was 53-year-old Jose Arquimides Manzanarez Munoz, was then arrested. He was booked on one count of attempted child kidnapping.
